Coronada en 1633, a los seis años, la Reina Cristina de Suecia fue una joven dirigente, enigmática y brillante, que combatió a las fuerzas conservadoras para revolucionar Suecia al tiempo que experimentaba el amor y exploraba su incipiente sexualidad. Huérfana de padre, rechazada por su madre y criada en una corte luterana dominada por hombres que pensaban que no tenía otra opción que casarse para tener un heredero, Cristina se vio envuelta entre la pasión y la razón. Revolucionaria, estudiosa de las artes y las ciencias, amiga de Descartes, librepensadora, precursora del movimiento feminista. Cristina era al mismo tiempo confusa, inquieta, excéntrica, solitaria, y en la corte todos subestimaban tanto su mente brillante como el despertar de la atracción que sentía por la condesa Ebba Sparre. Dividida por el conflicto que le planteaban sus aspiraciones políticas y sus deseos personales, Cristina tomaría una de las decisiones más controvertidas de la historia.

The multi-award-winning Finnish documentarian Mika Kaurismäki, brother of Aki Kaurismäki (The Man Without a Past), helms the nonfiction work Sonic Mirror -- a protracted exploration of rhythm as one of life's driving forces. Revered drummer Billy Cobham serves as host, taking the audience on a long musical journey around the world and through a myriad of musical genres and styles. Cobham, Kaurismäki, and co. segue from Western concert halls and stages to the music of African tribes performed by Brazilian street children to the distinct music of autistic patients. Along the way, the filmmakers raise serious questions about the function of music as an identifying force, a means of communication, and an emotional release; they also probe the enduring connections between group awareness and self-awareness. The film ultimately builds to a hugely affirming and cathartic expression of music as collective expression that unifies its performers in spirit.

Despite its suggestive title, this multi-part Danish omnibus film is not a work of exploitation. Instead, it presents 20 different short films (back-to-back) on the general theme of Danish women, directed by filmmakers including Krzysztof Zanussi, Monika Treut, Gustav Hamos, David Blair, Vibeke Vogel, Dusan Makavejev, Morten Skallerud and Lars Norgaard. Some dramatic vignettes mix with other comedic ones, but all are offbeat and experimental. The picture includes one animated sequence (by Norgaard).
